Can vouchers be used in other tesco stores, or only the one where you made the original purchases?

Yes - i sent a couple of vouchers and receipts to my daughter who is studying at uni 120 miles away. They accepted them in her local Mr T without question. As you can imagine she was chuffed to bits with them and is asking if I have anymore 'spare'!

Yes. Even Tesco Express (although you can't price check you receipt from there).

Esco express in st paul (London) has a massive DTD banner, so I think you can check price on some express stores

Let's end all this bickering. It's doing my head in! We all have to live with our consciences and do what we think is right which, for me, is using this up to the maximum £100 per month. I have had £50 worth of vouchers so far. Some people will think that I am stupid but each person has to live with his/herself. So no more arguing please.

I AGREE IF YOU WANT TO BEND THE RULES BEND THEM .. IF YOU DONT DO IT ... WE ALL MAKE CHOICES AND LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES HOW EVER U SPELL IT IF U DO MORE THEN YOU SHOULD YOU RISK GETTING COUGHT IF U DO ACCEPT THE TROUBLE IT MAY BRING ...IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO ENJOY THE VOUCHERS YOU DO GET AS £100 IN UR POCKETS BETTER THEN THERES !!
ps the 2 tht are arguing tht are beating around the bush about what they thinks right or wrong personally i have been told tonight im wrong for taking meat back tomorrow i dont care ... its my choice what i will do i cant afford to keep a peice of meat tht expensive .. i dont care what ppl say u both need to get over each other and stop getting so offended

Its time you went to bed - you've had a poke at a number of people and its time you packed it in. You don't appear to understand common sense and its a waste of time trying to discuss anything with you cos you are stuck in a mind set. Pity about that.

back to trying to tell me what to do?? lol

how have i poked at people??

ive just said what i feel on the matter same as everyone else...

if that means i disagree with some people on this subject then so be it.. but i wont shut up just because im in the minority.

Evening all,
First post on this thread, and would like to start it by thanking all the people that dedicate so much time and effort that will hopefully save us all lots in the end:T
So anyway after following it for a week or so, finally plucked up the courage to do a shop, but .... i got so flustered at the till (my mum was with me i was feeling the pressure to save her money, i had been telling her about it all week:))
we done 4 separate shops 2 each and my maths let me down BADLY!! (shamefully i am the manager of a bookies, numbers are my thing!!:o) One of my receipts the dtd should have been about £40, bought my nan some salmon and coke as a treat lol and some other bits! and the other about £30. My question is should i even worry about the difference or take a couple of non perishable bits back?
I am more then happy to put it down to experience and concentrate more next time, just wondered what everyone else does!!!
Many thanks esp to those dedicated to the ss etc!!
Oh and ps
For all you needing more kitchen storage, hubby is a kitchen designer i am sure he could double your cupboard space lol;)

To Whom I can complain:?
My experience today at other shop:

I had enormously unpleasant experience I had today at the customer service desk in Tesco ......... Extra, around 19:30 after I made my shopping and was overcharged for the 4 bottles of ARIEL EXCEL GEL WITH FEBREZE 18 WASH/667ML. I paid £4.50 for each of them at the counter however the shelf price was £3. For this reason I went to CS desk and told about the overcharge.
The CS assistant sent a colleague to get the price tag from the shelf and when she was back she gave me £3. I pointed out that I had bought 4 bottles of them not one, and she had my receipt in front of her. Then she said she has to call a duty manager because I was often seen here with overcharged items.
And then she asked me why I had bought 4 bottles? Why so many at once?
Because I do a lot of washing!?!
Let me ask you: is there a limit of items you can buy these days? It was a good price I thought therefore I bought more at once for the future. I didn’t have much money with me then, but if I had I could have bought a full trolley if I wanted. Do I have to ask Tesco permission to buy more then one?!
I was gutted at this point how she dared to tell me that I was coming here a lot with overcharged queries. It is Tesco who is misleading customers with the wrong prices. How many people were buying this item without even realising they’d been overcharged? Why should I be mistreated and interrogated by Tesco staff if I noticed Tesco’s mistake when I paid for my shopping?
So in other words what the assistant meant was that Tesco can trick you and steal your money as many times as it likes but you can come and query this once, not too often, otherwise there is a problem.
Eventually the duty manager came and asked me the same question: why did I buy 4 bottles exactly? I had to repeat all over again. I also added that I didn’t know that Tesco has a limited number of items that you are allowed to buy; apologised for coming over to CS desk so often to enquiry about the items that Tesco overcharged me again.
In these days we all try to save some money and I do check my receipt after I’ve done my shopping. And I do this thoroughly only because I and friends of mine have been overcharged a number of times.
After all this hassle and abusive behaviour from both CS assistant and the duty manager I finally got my money back but I was told that I would be watched. Is it me who did something wrong? How dare they say that to me in front of other people who stood in the queue behind me? What kind of customer service is that? I had been overcharged by Tesco, then accused of buying too much stuff as well as coming to the CS desk too often for the same reason.
I am very disappointed and upset with the way I was treated today. Therefore I will request a full apology from the CS assistant and the duty manager, because they had no right to abuse me like this and treat me like I was the villain here. Actually they should have thanked me that I came across with this issue so that they corrected the pricing and improved their reputation on labelling.

Very interesting story. The way I see it is that the chances are 'many' people picked up the washing powder before you, unaware that Tesco had been so 'slap dash' to leave the incorrect price up. They have gained from those people - wrongly in my view.

So what is the difference in you benefiting from the situation? I would say you were quite within your rights to do what you did. My past time used to be exactly the same. BUT you must remember. It is their store. It isn't unheard of for them to ban customers. Might be a good idea to let it rest and try a few other Tesco's - if that's possible!!;)

Sorry, I know this isn't really the place to ask but I have been keeping up with the thread and doing my DTDing, and I've noticed alot of clued up folk on here. So... would any of you know what SHOPPERSDISCOUNTS.CCD is, £10 debited from account at the same time every month for the past 3 months, haven't a clue what it's for and can't stop it as not a DD. Again sorry for posting here but any ideas greatly appreciated. TIA
